IT IS every parent's worst nightmare to find an intruder in their baby's room.

But for US couple Heather and Adam Schreck the situation was made all the more surreal because the intruder was not physically present - but inside their child's baby monitor.

A hacker hijacked the wireless baby monitor and was watching 10-month-old baby Emma sleep.

The couple, from Cincinnati, Ohio, was only alerted to what was happening when they awoke in the middle of the night to a man's voice screaming "wake up baby!"

Heather ran into the room and saw the camera positioned over the baby's crib moving erratically.

"About the time I saw it moving, I also heard a voice again start screaming at my daughter," Heather told local Fox 19 TV."He was screaming, 'Wake up baby. Wake up baby'. Then just screaming at her trying to wake her up."

When she was joined by her husband the camera turned on him and the voice began shouting obscenities.

IT experts told the Mail Online that camera hacks on computer and laptop webcams are common.

They advised that parents can make wireless baby monitors more secure by ensuring that the camera has a separate password to the computer.
